Is this the same Chief Antelope who was involved in the Meeker incident at the White River Agency, Colorado?

I must agree with you -- there did not appear to be any women in this photograph; however, I am not an expert in this area so I wasn't going to make any absolute declarative statements. The key may be in the "Charlie" Spotted Tail. None of the Spotted Tail references I found ever mentioned the name "Charlie." Plus, rifles and cartridge belts appear to be a prominent theme with these Utes, as I thought Spotted Tail was a peace-maker.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, quite a dignified portrait. Perhaps this is a photograph of a young Pahute Jim? And therefore, yes, a Native American Ute. What do you think?

Are you adept at identifying Native Americans in early photographs?

Shown here is another photograph of an unidentified Native American, taken at the studio of Duhem Brothers, Denver, Colorado, circa 1875. Again, another very dignified looking individual who must have been quite notable. Please assist with any known name and facts. Sincerely, Brian Levine Crested Butte, Colorado

This photograph was taken in Denver, circa 1875, in the Duhem & Bro. studio. I am unable to identify the Native American and his family. If you require any more details, please let me know. Cheers, Brian Levine, Crested Butte, Colorado.

Above is a carte de visite photograph of "Carrie Spotted Tail, Charlie Spotted Tail, and Mr. & Mrs. Big Horn," as written on back of image by W. G. Chamberlain, Denver, Colorado, circa 1870. Is this the third Spotted Tail, Chief of the Brule? This one of a collection of about 100 Native American photographs, mostly Colorado and New Mexico related, recently acquired by me. I am able to identify a good many of these excellent photographs; however, there are many exceptional images I can't identify. I hope to identify all these images to assist researchers. Please contact me if you are interested in this project. Sincerely, Brian Levine, Crested Butte, Colorado (970) 349-7079

I have recently had the good fortune to acquire an excellent collection of 19th century photographs of Native Americans. Some are identified, such as Chief Ouray; however, others are not. I am looking for someone who can help me identify these superb Native American personalities. If you are interested in assisting, please contact me at your convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Brian Levine, Crested Butte, Colorado, USA (970) 349-7079
